Chapter 1630: Wrong Orders
Translator: LawEditor: Hitesh_
Staring at the black and yellow mist flowing out of Emperor Shun's body, Ji Xia's eye corners twitched. The mist was Emperor Shun's natural reward power, which had been dissipating. What happened? Was the world punishing Emperor Shun because he passed down the throne to an unreliable person?
”Armor!” Ji Xia gave a deep roar. Under his order, a few Gold Crow Clan commanders carried a crimson metal box and walked over. They opened the box, took out a full armor, which was wrapped in a raging fire.
Ji Xia spread his arms, and the armor flew out of the box like a living being, putting itself on Ji Xia's body piece by piece. Head, neck, arms, shoulders, palms, chest, heart, stomach, waist, legs, feet, the armor shielded every part of Ji Xia's body.
This was a divine armor, created by nature especially for the God of War. Ji Xia's entire body was covered in the armor, without exposing even an inch of his skin. Wearing this heavy armor, he looked even a foot taller.
Stretching his limbs, Ji Xia picked up a long spear and approached Emperor Shun with large steps.
”Brother, be careful...” A group of Gold Crow Clan people worried about Ji Xia. Just now, they watched Emperor Shun force Ji Xia back by simply wielding his sword. Even though Ji Xia was now in a full divine armor, his people still worried about him. After all, Emperor Shun's sword attack was way too powerful.
”No worries. I can take a few more sword strikes!” Ji Xia straightened the long spear and approached the altar quickly.
High up in the air, colorful light poured down in strong streams, from the faintly visible divine gate. The heaven and earth great formation was triggered to support Ji Xia with the power of the world. In the higher sky, stars dazzled and sent beams of starlight down to the earth. Tonight, the stars shone hundreds of times brighter than usual.
The pure, tremendous star power flew into Ji Xia's body. Ji Xia growled deeply as he grew taller and taller. His armor expanded as well. Within a twinkle of an eye, he reached nine meters in height, his whole body shining with a dazzling colorful light.
”Emperor Shun, I can't let you stay in Pu Ban City. You and Gong Sun Xun, come with me!” Pondering for a while, Ji Xia made the decision, ”And you, Bo Feng, Zhong Kan, Shuxian, Ji Zhong, Bohu, Zhong Xiong, Shu Bao, Jili, you are all senior ministers with a lofty virtue worthy of respect. I don't want to fight you. Please, come with me, and stay a while in the heaven.”
The group of people mentioned by Ji Xia were all important senior ministers under Emperor Shun's command, at an equal level as Hao Tao. Most of the human society affairs were managed by these people. Emperor Shun was controlled by Yu Huo, so without a doubt, all these important ministers were affected as well.
Ji Xia attempted to bring them all back to the heaven. As long as they left Pu Ban City and stayed far away from the highest power of the human society, whatever Yu Huo wanted, he wouldn't be able to do a thing until Emperor Shun and his people returned.
If he nominated another new emperor, Ji Xia would bring that person to the heaven too. Besides, without Emperor Shun and Gong Sun Xun, the abdication ceremony would stop. Ji Xia was curious about what Yu Huo could do under this situation.
”Ji Xia, as a divine god, you shouldn't interfere in human affairs!” Emperor Shun turned around with a faint smile, his hand rested on the hilt of his sword while shaking his head and saying, ”If you had retreated just now, we would be in peace. But since you challenged again...Where are my warriors?”
Before Emperor Shun finished, Gong Sun Xun, who had changed to a luxurious imperial robe, growled out loud at Emperor Shun, ”Shun! I am the emperor now, I am Emperor Xun! I will make the call now! You're old, you can piss off!”
